Summary
Twain leans in closer. “Why not? Ain’t it your birthday tomorrow, wouldn’t celebrating be nice?”
Nathaniel pushes him off. “And why do you know that?” Twain’s always been strange about birthdays. Always incessant that they need to be celebrated, and that it should be a special day every year. He doesn’t get it.
“Lousia told me!” Twain’s unbothered by the shove, his grin only getting wider. “So, c’mon! I’ll pay for whatever you want, consider it my treat.”

Summary
It’s not that Tachihara’s birthday was never celebrated. Some years the party–though calling it that makes it sound like it’s actually festive-comes a day early, or a couple days late, but he learned to not mind.
Knowing his family, it wasn’t worth getting upset over.

“...What are you? Where am I?” Oda looks around. He’s in the back of a well-kept bookstore, moonlight shining through. He can smell the curry, but it doesn’t bring that lovely burning taste to his tongue.
The detective groans. “I tried to tell you! I’m Ranpo Edogawa, the world’s greatest–”
“You told me that part already.”

Summary
“Ya don’t want much, do you?” Margaret comments as she peers into what little is illuminated of Louisa’s room. Plans all for another, never for her.
Louisa adjusts her glasses, not meeting her eyes. “I just want what you do.” She shrugs like the weight of the entire sky is crushing her. It’s in every aspect of her posture, how she holds herself like she’s trying to shrink into nothing.

“Hey, Lucy!!” Mark’s voice interrupts her thoughts as he peers into the room, grinning. “I heard from a little mouse that we have the same birthday, so let’s go!”
